Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers pledges to splash cash in January

Daniel Sturridge, who has scored nine goals in the league this season, has been ruled out for up to eight weeks with a sprained ankle.

Playmaker Philippe Coutinho was only a sub in Sunday's defeat at Hull and when key players go down Rodgers knows he does not have the necessary replacements.

The boss said: "I think every window for us will be exactly the same - if there's a player we think can improve our squad and in particular the team, I'm sure we will be able to go out and get that player.

"It was always going to be the case that if we had a few injuries to key players, that leaves us light.

"It's no different to a lot of squads, but for us it's even more prominent because Daniel Sturridge and young Coutinho were not playing and they are good players."

Liverpool take on Norwich at Anfield tomorrow as Rodgers looks to get back to winning ways.

He added: "It's where we love to play and the earlier we can score a goal, the better for us, because it gives us that confidence to go on and take the initiative in the game.

"We want to put it right for the supporters as well, because they were hugely disappointed after the game against Hull.

"For us, they've been magnificent and they've given us great backing and great support and we disappointed them."
